This Northern European country, which is home to the Air Guitar World Championship, the Mosquito Swatting Championships and the Swamp Soccer Championships (just to name a few), is also the proud creator of the Wife Carrying World Championships.

Taisto Miettinen, a lawyer, passed this bar exam when he carried his lovely wife Kristiina Haapanen through the course in a little more than a minute.
